Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Some users want to run pruned node because of cost of space, but lnd-system-@variant depends on full chain.

Describe the solution you'd like
Remove the dependency and add it to suggests. It's safe now because LND supports pruned nodes.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Fake full chain through RPC proxy.

Additional context
The dependency was there specifically because of safety concerns. These are no longer relevant.

Maybe not that great idea just yet: lightningnetwork/lnd#5517

Let's wait at least until that one settles. So far looks like we need to at least set min version for bitcoind.
